House Democrats are initiating a discharge petition to permanently block the Trump administration's nearly $1.8 billion anti-weaponization fund.

The petition, launched by House Judiciary Committee ranking member Jamie Raskin, seeks to prevent future abuses of the Judgment Fund, despite previous assurances that the fund would be scrapped. AI
